Abstract

The values of employing the mediator in the space of the painting varied, exploring the role of technology and experimentation in the dimensional and physical systems, and the relationship between form and function continued to accompany the artwork for material purposes, the mediator has played the role of the material carrier at some times, while in this research it is intended the aesthetic role and being a subject on which the idea of the artistic work itself depends that it is a re-exploration and interpretation of the medium in its ability to multiply and cross the limits of techniques and trends pertaining to artistic work to form a kind of mixing with digital technology and contemporary quality concept and to become a source of aesthetic construction among the specific interactions of the performances accompanying the artistic work space. The medium represents a material that can be added and treated for a purpose that goes beyond the construction of the visual plastic concept. Rather, it reached through the experiments of painting space and artistic work to the point of theorizing for modernist projects and trends that exceeded the limits of classification and different visual styles from the means of expression with materials and technical means, as it became crossing the limits of science and aesthetic and expressive formulas overcoming the temporal and spatial determinants of the space of the artistic work. The necessity of selective visual media with artwork and painting is not in its being to reproduce images of visible reality, but in its ability to make what is beyond the visible world a visible world. The visual medium is a diacritical language loaded with the artist's own experience in terms of expression, imaginative flexibility, a tendency towards experimentation, the ability to analyze, visual and formal composition, possessing an independent language, and the possibility of aesthetically linking the technological and technical dream world with the real world and by selecting the medium the surface turns into a visual passion. So it takes us directly to the world of art and calls for the relationships of things and their multiple phenomena to reach modernist stages of creative perception of artistic work.
